Freestar Technology's Rahaxi P00rocessing Oy. Signs Exclusive Contract with UK-based Thyron Systems to Supply Portable Emv-compatible Payment Terminals in Finland
March 20, 2006

    SHANGHAI, March 20 /Xinhua-PRNewswire/ -- FreeStar
Technology Corp. (OTCBB: FSRT), an international card
payments processor and technology company, announced last
week that its Finnish-based, wholly owned subsidiary,
Rahaxi Processing Oy., has agreed to supply portable
EMV-compatible payment processing devices from Thyron
Systems Ltd., a UK-based provider of mobile payment
processing devices that are EMV-compatible, to be used in
Finland.

    The company reported that Thyron Systems's mobile
payment processing devices are very popular because they
can be used in restaurants, taxis and buses.  They are
currently being used in the licensed taxis from Heathrow
Airport, the high-speed rail link between central Stockholm
and the city's main airport.and by British Airways to supply
electronic cash reimbursements to customers.  

    Thyron Systems mobile devices will be the most
full-featured portable payment terminals to be available in
Finland.  Thyron has the longest lasting battery of all its
competitors and therefore is the best-suited terminal for
the market. It also has the smallest footprint terminal of
its kind, easy to hold, back-lit pad, optional touch screen
and it comes with a charging cradle and a top quality
printer, the company explained.

    Thyron Systems terminals are called Chip & Pin
(C&P) devices because the terminal reads the chip in
the EMV-compatible credit or debit card and the cardholder
enters a pin number to identify himself.  This
identification and security methodology reduces card
transaction fraud.

    FreeStar Technology President and CEO Paul Egan said,
"We are pleased to introduce C&P technology to
Finland and we expect that it will help Rahaxi Processing
make dramatic gains in market share in Finland.  

    Garrett Clifford, sales manager, Thyron Systems, said, 
"I am delighted that Rahaxi Processing has chosen
Thyron Systems to be its sole supplier in Finland of
portable card payment devices. Rahaxi Processing holds a
significant share of the Finnish market and has a clear
understanding of the market requirements. Thyron looks
forward to supporting Rahaxi in its aim to enable
cardholders to make payments in an increasing variety of
locations and environments."
